Question

10. We use sugars in our bodies as substrates from which we can make energy, as cellular markers that enable our immune systems to recognize what is 'self' versus 'non self' and as important components of the building blocks that make up our genetic material. Two additional terms frequently used as synonyms to name this class of macromolecules are, in alphabetical order, ______________ and ______________.

Match each of the statements listed on the left to the appropriate sugar listed on the right.
